"You're talking nonsense."

"That's just nonsense."

"It's pure slander."

Wang Jingwei's words suddenly caused the anger of the public, and saliva, bricks, knives and axes flew towards him together.

Yin Hongzhi said: "Lord Wang, you have to be responsible when you speak. His Royal Highness King Qi has money, but people have patent fees. I suggest you go and study patent law well. If you have that ability to invent an invention, you will also have money. ”

"Your Majesty, when you advocate rumors and rumors, you ask your ministers to conduct investigation and research and have tangible evidence. This time, the minister already has tangible evidence. Isn't it wrong for the minister to impeach him on this basis? Wang Gao was furious, and he said eloquently.

Li Shimin also does not believe in Wang Gao's impeachment, but he has not yet received a letter from Li You, and some things are not very clear to him.

It is said that the magpie adopts the flying pigeon communication, which should be faster than the 600 miles of the eldest grandson Shunde. However, there are many restrictions on Feige's communication, first of all, the carrier pigeon is active during the day, and it will rest quietly at night. Wind, rain, thunder and lightning can have an impact on carrier pigeons. In the past two days, there was light rain in the Luoyang area, so Li You's letter was 600 miles behind the eldest grandson Shunde's 600 miles of urgency.

Li Shimin said: "Wang Gao's words are reasonable. The matter was investigated by the Goshidai. ”

Wang Gao was proud, no matter what the final outcome of this matter was, at least for now, he had won for the time being. As long as the Imperial Historical Observatory launched an investigation, it would be enough for Li You to deal with it for a while.

After the dispersal of the dynasty, Wang Gao walked towards the imperial city with satisfaction, and he looked forward to the afternoon, so that he could go to the palace of the king of Wei and meet His Royal Highness the king of Wei, and he would definitely be rewarded.

"Lord Wang." At this moment, someone stopped him. He looked up and saw that he didn't recognize the two people in front of him. He asked, "Who are you?" Is there something wrong? ”

The visitor showed his waist card and said, "Please come with us." ”

When Wang Gao saw it, he was immediately startled - the person who came turned out to be a person from the Hundred Horsemen. He broke out in a cold sweat and stammered, "What are you looking for me for?" I didn't break the law. ”

The man who came said; "Lord Wang, the lowly rank is also acting under orders. Please also ask for your cooperation. ”

Wang Gao had no choice but to obediently follow the comer.

Liangyi Palace, study.

Just before the dispersal of the dynasty, Li Shimin received a letter from Li You, which was sent by Zhang Guigui.

After reading the letter, Li Shimin was in an extremely bad mood.

The eldest grandson Shunde is not only the uncle of the eldest grandson, but also Li Shimin's savior. At the time of the Xuanwumen Incident, Li Shimin and others were besieged by the old department of Li Jiancheng's East Palace and were in danger.

At the critical moment, Empress Changsun dragged her weak body after giving birth, braved the heavy rain to go to the 16th Guard Barracks, and asked Changsun Shunde to send troops, so that Li Shimin was relieved. Li Shimin always remembered his contribution and trusted him. Therefore, he was allowed to hold heavy troops and garrison Luoyang, the eastern capital.

Now, the eldest grandson Shunde has embarked on the road of rebellion, which makes Li Shimin extremely sad.

There is another important reason why Li Shimin is in a bad mood.

Li Shimin was wise and martial, and he was fearless of the rebellion of his eldest grandson Shunde. In the past two years, the imperial court has implemented a policy of appeasing the people and calming down, and has achieved good results, and the national strength has been greatly enhanced. However, once the eldest grandson Shunde raised troops to rebel, it would take a lot of manpower and material resources to quell the rebellion, and the efforts of the imperial court in the past two years were in vain.

Not only that, but this matter will also have a great impact on the credibility of the imperial court. Li Shimin flaunts the prosperity of Zhenguan all day long, and the eldest grandson Shunde, as an important minister of the imperial court, is also the uncle of the eldest grandson empress, such an identity will rebel, how will the people of the world view this matter? What do you think of him Li Shimin?

Soon after, Ma Xuanliang brought even worse news. He said: "Your Majesty, the evidence that Wang Gao falsely accused His Royal Highness King Qi of embezzlement and bribery was provided by Shi Wang Jingwei, the governor of the Wei Palace. ”

Li Shimin now understands that Li Tai has always been in contact with the eldest grandson Shunde, and the person who revealed the news to the eldest grandson Shunde must be Li Tai.

Among Li Shimin's many princes and daughters, Li Shimin's favorite is Li Tai, and he is now very worried that Li Tai is involved in the rebellion of his eldest grandson Shunde. He thinks that Li Tai should only be used by the eldest grandson Shunde, otherwise, with Li Tai's cleverness, he will not get involved with the eldest grandson Shunde. But even so, Li Tai wanted to cause public anger. He just hopes that Li Tai won't get too involved in this matter now. In that case, it would be difficult to protect him even if you wanted to.

Thinking of this, Li Shimin's he ordered: "This matter is kept secret for the time being." ”

"Yes, Your Majesty." Ma Xuanliang withdrew.

"Wang De, immediately announce that the eldest Sun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Wei Zheng, Li Jing and Hou Jun will gather to meet you." Li Shimin commanded.

It didn't take long for the ministers whose names were called to come.

Li Shimin told the story of the incident.

This news can be said to be very shocking to Fang Xuanling, Li Jing and Hou Junji. Everyone has a different mentality.

Fang Xuanling has always had some opinions about the arrogance of the eldest grandson Shunde, but the eldest grandson Shunde rebelled, and he still didn't want to see it.

Li Jing was very emotional, when the Xuanwumen Incident occurred, Li Shimin once sought his support, but he chose neutrality between Li Jiancheng and Li Shimin at that time. And this eldest grandson Shunde rescued Li Shimin at a critical moment.

Although under the circumstances at that time, Li Jing, as a general of the Tang Dynasty, did not participate in the struggle between princes and princes, and he was not at fault, but for the new dynasty founded by Li Shimin, he was an outsider. Even so, as a general, he made his due contribution to the rule of Sadakan.

As a staunch supporter of Li Shimin, the eldest grandson Shunde has always been trusted and reused by Li Shimin. History is really a big joke, the eldest grandson Shunde actually embarked on the road of rebellion for the sake of corruption.

Hou Junji used to be a subordinate of the eldest grandson Shunde, and when the eldest grandson Shunde saw Hou Junji, he always called him a monkey cub, and the relationship between the two has always been good. I couldn't help but feel sorry for him in my heart.

The three of them were silent in unison.

Wei Zheng said worriedly: "Your Majesty, in that case, why is His Royal Highness King Qi still staying in Luoyang City?" ”

Fang Xuanling, Ren Ren and Hou Junji were also very surprised when they heard that Li You was in Luoyang City. Hou Junji said eagerly: "His Royal Highness King Qi is in Luoyang City? What was he doing there at this time? ”

Wei Zheng said: "In order to provide the imperial court with accurate information on the rebellion of the eldest grandson Shunde, His Royal Highness the King of Qi specially stayed in Luoyang City to monitor their movements. ”

Hou Junji said: "Now that you have figured it out, let him leave Luoyang quickly." ”

Li Shimin sighed and said: "He just wants to leave Luoyang now, I'm afraid it will be difficult." ”

Everyone understands that Li You is now in deep danger. Everyone was worried about Li You, and they all asked the imperial court to quickly mobilize a large army and send troops to Luoyang.

Subsequently, the group began to study a plan to counter the rebellion.

Lizheng Palace.

Empress Changsun heard the news that Changsun Shunde was about to rebel, and her heart was extremely sad. When she and her brother eldest grandson Wuji were young, their parents died prematurely. They lived with their uncle Gao Shilian, and Shunde, the eldest grandson of their uncle, also took great care of their brothers and sisters. It can be said that the feelings are very deep.

Especially at the critical moment like the Xuanwumen Change, the eldest grandson Shunde reached out to help, so that Li Shimin and her queen are today. Empress Eldest Sun didn't want to see Eldest Sun Shunde fall into a different place no matter what.

However, rebellion is a first-degree crime after all, and it has always been unforgivable, even for the nine clans. It is almost impossible to save the eldest grandson Shunde. However, Empress Changsun still wanted to do something for Changsun Shunde.

She really wanted to beg Li Shimin, but as the queen, she must not interfere in politics. In dealing with such a major matter as a case of rebellion, she must not abolish her public affairs for personal reasons. She knew that even if she begged Li Shimin. It's also useless.

She thought about it but couldn't do anything, feeling irritable and dizzy.
